Check if You Have Enough Disk Space

Not having enough disk space is one of the reasons you can run into this problem while upgrading Windows. So, before you do anything else, check your computer to see if there’s enough free space.

• To do this in Windows 10, go to “This PC” and look at the main drive (usually called “Local Disk (C:)“). Right-click it and select “Properties.”
• Under the “General” tab, you’ll see how much space is available. If it says there are less than 20 GB of free space, the OS deployment will fail during the upgrade process.
• So, if you have insufficient space on your disk, follow these tips for you so you can have the required disk space for the upgrade process:
• Uninstall apps you don’t use anymore.
• Empty your Recycle Bin.
• Delete temporary files.
• Remove any non-essential data from your storage drives.
• Defragment your drives.

Once you’ve done all of the above and freed up some space on your operating systems, restart your computer and try upgrading Windows again.

Temporarily Disable Third-Party Antivirus Programs

If you have a third-party antivirus program installed, it may be the reason you’re encountering this problem. The solution is to temporarily disable the security software and then try upgrading Windows again.

Of course, this means your computer will be vulnerable during that time, so make sure you re-enable the security software as soon as the upgrade is finished.

1. Right-click on an empty space in your taskbar and choose Task Manager from the context menu.
2. Switch to the Startup tab using the header menu located at the top of the window. Here, find your antivirus application from the list and select it by clicking on it once.
3. Click on the Disable button now visible in the bottom-right of the window. This will disable the application from launching when you start your device.
4. Restart your computer and see if you’re able to upgrade Windows.

Use the Same Version of Windows To Upgrade

The problem is that the error code was entered incorrectly, which means it might happen when you’re using a different Windows edition than the one currently installed on your computer.

• It’s been reported by other users who were having similar difficulties and discovered that correcting the problem involved selecting the same Windows media like them.
• To avoid this, you must make sure that the same Windows media is being used as the one you have already installed.
• This implies that if you have Windows Enterprise installed, you should use Windows Enterprise media while upgrading to avoid receiving an error code.

Change the Local Computer Description Command

If you see the error code while using a job sequence, it may be because you set the computer description during the job sequence. You’ll need to change the command used to set the local computer description to fix this.

• This can be done with the NET CONFIG command. Simply add Run Command-Line to the task sequence and then run the command: cmd /c net config Server /SRVCOMMENT:”%OSDComputerDescription%
• This will change the computer description to the OSDComputerDescreitpion variable’s value. You can alter the variable name to whatever you want to make it work for you.
